My ex wife prefered snap chat.

So you know, I just happened to get traumatized by another dudes dick in my wife's phone after her nude photos I've never seen. I don't know who he was other than her admitting it was a guy she cheated on me with 5 years ago.

No I'm not over it. Its been over a year, and because of the toxic nature of our relationship I don't have confidence to go out there and meet other people. It's fine, I'm fine. I've got video games and a shower to cry in.

But fuck smartphones. I hate this goddamn technology more than I hate my ex.

That sucks. But it also happened before smartphones. Ask me how I know.

Are you the dude who texted @Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world their wife?

[-] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

It takes a long time for that hurt to go away. It eventually will, mostly.

Take your time. It'll be better.

I'm sorry, man :/ I hope you feel better some day soon - it'll all pass! I'm sure you've heard all the platitudes before tho. What games you playing ATM? 👀

Elden Ring, Helldivers when I need to calm down from Elden Ring, and Factorio when I need to cool it from Helldivers.

I sprinkle in a little Diablo IV and No Man's Sky too

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
